I tweeted about this guy last night and got all these replies from random people who said he'd saved their baby's life. Fuck being rich I would love to have been this guy, imagine how cool it would be to know you'd helped so many people. We need to name an airport after him or something

If we do nothing, it can pay 100% of benefits until 2035 & 83% after that. If we passed Bernie’s Social Security bill to scrap the cap, it will be solvent for 75 years, benefits will go up by $2,400 and 91% won’t pay a penny more in taxes you greedy South African billionaire.
